If the frame had been designed with a taller head tube, it would not look weird at all. “Comfortable” is subjective, so if that’s what works for you, go for it. If you’re using a mountain bike frame for an upright comfort bike kind of build, this is the only way to get there.
I would advise against this on a carbon fiber fork. With steel, send it.

Top spacer is just there to flex. I would prefer a riser bar (perhaps a lot of riser bar) and a taller stem, but it’s not my bike.
Does this bike leave the ground? If yes, how close is that top cap to your sternum when you land?

Now you have to tell me the song that you queued in my head.
